    Komodo vs Gemini Low-Light Performance

    I know it may be too early to ask this. But planning my camera purchases and wondering whether a Komodo + a Gemini is going to make the most sense vs going to 2 Komodo's (Alongside a currently owned venerable Dragon). I was wondering if anyone who has experience shooting Gemini & the pre-release...

    Miller Compass23 vs Compass15

    Just wanted to see what people generally thought about the Compass 23 & Compass 15? Both in terms of whether these are good heads for a RED Camera set-up using EF lenses (but otherwise fairly kitted out with 7” monitors, arms, matte box, follow focus, V-lock battery). And whether one head or...

    Sachtler Ace XL

    I was wondering if anyone had any experience or thoughts regarding this tripod head? Or whether another alternative is a better choice, even if going up in budget somewhat? I am coming from a pair of Manfrotto 504HD's and am looking for something superior. Also does anyone know whether this...

    Question Regarding Zoom F8 USB Connector + XLR Splitters

    Not sure if this is a dumb question (but haven't been able to find a clear answer so far :p) is it possible to feed audio into the Zoom F8 via its USB connector (For example via the USB output of a Sound Devices MixPre-D). Or do these USB connections only work with a computer, for use as a USB...

    nMP + External Graphics in RCX/Resolve

    Just wanted to know if anyone was running an external graphics box in MacOS with their nMP? And how things fared in RCX/Resolve? Particularly interested in whether combining a 980Ti with the built-in D700's isn't going to play nice / if an external AMD card would make more sense. Particularly...

    85mm Art - Lens supported on MX?

    Just wanted to check if anyone is using the new 85mm Art yet? I didn't see support added for it in any of the recent firmware builds (May have missed it), I imagine it should work just fine all the same, but thought I'd check to be sure. Looking at getting one in the next few days :)

    DJI Ronin Replacement Battery Not Fitting Fresh out of Box

    Hey everyone, I just wanted to mention an issue we had recently with a DJI Ronin replacement battery we had ordered from BH. It was the genuine DJI item in every way I can see, but appears to have been manufactured slightly out of spec as it simply wouldn't fit in our Ronin (Both the battery...

    Low Light - Dragon LLO or MX?

    We're shooting on a tower rooftop for an upcoming sci-fi shoot in Dubai, and I'm trying to choose the best camera choice to get the best detail out of the cityscape below. We own MX sensor Scarlets which I feel very confident with, but I'm trying to decide whether renting an LLO Epic Dragon...

    Shooting through Stained Glass with a Polariser

    Was just wondering if anyone had any experience shooting an actor on the other side of a stained glass window (with a very telephoto lens, crushed perspective), I was wondering how a polariser may effect the stained glass, and if anyone had any experiences with this :) or images of examples of...

    Daylight-balanced lights for Green-Screen, Tungsten for Subjects

    Hey everyone, Just wanted to ask if there's anything to watch out for // if it's a bad idea shooting tungsten-balanced subjects with a daylight balanced greenscreen. Assuming that the footage will ultimately be rated around Tungsten color-temp and the green-screen will be keyed out with a...

    Requesting unprocessed Green Screen Footage

    Hey everyone, This is my first post but I've been reading many threads over the last couple of months of SCARLET ownership. I'm currently working on a feature film project (Which I will be happily sharing with the board soon) and we're looking to start doing some chroma-key tests with the...
